Triple Arrest in Meknes: Brothers Charged with Double Homicide and Arson

The three brothers aged 24 to 32 attacked a house in the Meknes region "during the night of December 14 to 15, before deliberately setting it on fire and assaulting its occupants with bladed weapons, killing two people on the spot and injuring three others," says the General Directorate of National Security (DGSN) in a press release.

The investigation conducted since by the police led to the arrest on Monday of two suspects who were the subject of a wanted notice, then another in the vicinity of the city of Meknes, the statement said.

The three persons implicated in this case were placed in custody pending their appearance before the judge.
